Professional services firm Azets Ireland plans to more than double its workforce by hiring 120 new accountants and tax consultants following its acquisition of Baker Tilly last month.

The company said the expansion is in response to rising demand from companies against the backdrop of the contraction of the technology sector, instability in the banking system, and rising costs.
